Regulation Matters Campaign Launches Website

The Regulation Matters Campaign has launched its own website: www.regulationmatters.co.uk.
The site features news and information about the Campaign, including the results of its recent surveys of nannies, parents and nanny agencies: http://regulationmatters.co.uk/pages/mission_statement.
Regulation Matters is calling for “the registration of all childcarers in the UK, so that nannies and other home childcarers are brought under the same regulatory umbrella and held to the registration standards currently required of childminders in order to safeguard children, improve childcare standards, and create consistency in the childcare industry”.
The Campaign’s key objectives are:
• safeguarding measures in place supported by legislation to remove from ALL childcare and early years sectors those found to be unsuitable;
• safeguarding of ALL children, ensuring that every child is cared for safely and professionally by committed, well trained practitioners; and
• aiming to have all “Home Childcarers” in the UK working to and measured by a recognised set of Core Professional Standards
